4th Generation Boy Group Member Deletes Photo After Being Caught With An Electric Cigarette
4th generation boy group member EPEX‘s Baekseung uploaded a photo to the group’s social media on August 16, 2024. The star posed in black-rimmed glasses and a white tee from Calvin Klein. He stood in front of a sink.
Baekseung deleted the photo just as quickly as he uploaded it. Fans deduced that the star realized he had accidentally left his electric cigarette (also known as a vape) in pure sight, right on the counter.
Baekseung was born in 2004, making him twenty years of age. He is considered a legal adult in South Korea, making it okay for him to smoke. Despite this, one netizen served up some words of wisdom that many others agreed with. Although it is more than okay for him to smoke, as a public figure with influence over youth, he should have been more careful about exposing it to the public.
다들 인용으로 연예인이 전담피는게 왜? 무슨상관? 이러는데 그냥 좀 펴도 안보이게하는게 팬에게 최소한의 예의아니냐? 좋아하는사람도 있겠지만 분명 싫어하는 사람도 있을텐데 걍 애초에 말 안나오게 행동하면 되잖슴; 뒤에서 맘껏 필사람은 피세요;; 들키지만 마세요 좀;; 연애도 마찬가지임.. https://t.co/8SgmWoNxCD

All the QRTs are like, what’s wrong with celebrities vaping? What does it matter? But for me, I think it’s minimum respect to fans to smoke it without being seen. There might be people who like this side of him, but there’s also people who don’t. Isn’t it best for him to just act in a way that doesn’t cause talk? Those who want to smoke, do so as much as you want to behind-the-scenes. Just don’t get caught. Same for dating…

This is not the first time that EPEX members have come under scrutiny. Previously, two members were caught scaling a wall after being spotted at a club.
